Default What is actually done in the 4Y/40K Service?

Posted this in the 991 Turbo discussion area and cross posting it here as well.

Recently purchased a new to me 2014 TTS with just under 30K miles on it. I finally got all the maintenance and service history on the vehicle and it turns out I am due for the the spark plug change at 30K miles, but am also due for the 4Y/40K maintenance. What I am trying to find out is what all is included in the 4Y/40K maintenance. Do they change the spark plugs then anyways as well as do the brake flush as part of the service? What else is done at that service? Been searching the internet, but can't seem to find a complete list on what is done at this maintenance that isn't normally on the check list.

Thanks in advance.

Just had 4y/40k done, included oil change, air filter, cabin filter and spark plugs. Brake fluid change was extra.

Turbo replaces sparkplugs every 30,000 miles or 3 years. Replacing engine air filters every 40,000 miles or 4 years requires removal of the rear bumper cover. The above documents lay it all out.

That is odd since a brake fluid flush/replacement is part of the 40k/4 yr service.

Also the maintenance schedule does a lot more than those few things. Mostly inspections etc.

Thanks. I have the checklist, but it doesn't exactly spell out what all is done on the 4Y/40K maintenance, thus the question. With the Turbo requiring the spark plugs at 30K miles, I wasn't sure if they would or would not included that as part of the 4Y/40K service.

911 Turbo Checklist

It would seem that some dealers do it differently as I started contacting several to see what all this would entail in my area (cost, time frame, etc.) One dealer broke out the cost as: Spark Plug Change - $995,00, Brake Flush - $199.95, 4Y/40K Service - $1,395.00, for a total of $2,539.95. Other dealer contacted said $1,895.00, and included all the above. Both wanted the vehicle for the day.
